After discharging at that port a part of her cargo she proceeded to Liverpool with a portion of machinery manufactured by Messrs. Harvey and Co , of this place, destined for Cerres-ne-Pasco, Peru. The whole of the work comprises four 37-inch engines. For the convenience of carriage over the mountains no part weighs more than 300 lbs. ! The engineer, with some workmen from the above firm, leave here this week to erect these engines.
